Hello,
Is there any way of speeding up the amount of time it takes to upload pictures from the computers' media card slot? It takes approxiametly 5 seconds to upload each 8mp picture on my Gateway mx7567, which is too slow.

Will getting a high speed flash card help that much or would an external high speed 2.0 usb card reader give the greater results?
Thanks

Just getting a reader will allow you do upload much, much faster. I have a sandisk usb 2.0 one, and it does great. Does your computer have a USB 2.0 port?
